    Tamara Ecclestone finds it "heartbreaking" dropping her daughter off at nursery

    The 33-year-old heiress admits it can be a "struggle" to motivate three-year-old Sophia - who she has with husband Jay Rutland - to get ready on the three days a week she goes to a pre-school because the youngster doesn't really enjoy being away from her


    She said:" On those mornings it's always a bit of a struggle as Fifi doesn't particularly love school.

    "At the beginning it was something new to her, something different, and she was enjoying it.

    "Now she knows it is permanent and she doesn't have a choice so she doesn't love it as much. Taking her to school can be quite heartbreaking.

    "I think Fifi knows that when she is with me, we have such adventures. Whereas school is not quite as much fun."

    Tamara is determined to be a good role model for her daughter and wants Sophia to see her as an "independent, strong woman".

    She said: "Everything I do, Sophia watches so it's important to be a strong woman, to stand up for what is right.

    "She already picks up on so much of what I do, so I think it's about being a positive example - and there is nothing better than being an independent, strong woman.

    "If there is one thing I hope she could grow up to be, that would be it."

    And the 'Tamara's World' star hopes her little girl grows up to marry someone as "amazing" as her own husband.

    She gushed to Britain's HELLO! magazine: "Jay is a very gentlemanly man, a great dad and an amazing husband.

    "If Fifi one day marries someone like Jay, that would be great.

    "I also had such a great example in my dad. I think it's really important for girls to have good relationships with their dads as a positive male role model in their lives."
